• Music of the Hemispheres

    You write from tomorrow:
    I read it today, reply,
    then sleep as you move towards noon.
    Soon I will wake as you go home -
    your day ended, mine just begun.

    Often you write to me round noon,
    words which travel as I sleep at 2am.
    Our minds linger to meet outside of time
    in a space we create, that is always light,
    where bodies break orbit and gently collide.


    ~Robyn Bolam

    The Proverbial Box is a community of people who believe that life is better lived by "thinking outside the box"....

    Thinking outside the box is a standard of creativity, expression, and musical execution. There is THE box and how far inside or outside of it a musician, a writer, or any artist is. On a philosophical note, the "box" can apply to anything in your daily life. How do you live your life? How creative are you? How tastefully and fascinatingly outside of the norm are you?"

    The PB is a community of mutually supportive people who share the fun of supporting out of the box artists, but we also have wide-ranging interests that we discuss here. This is a place for exploring diverse topics, but kindness and thoughtfulness remain hallmarks of our interaction with each other.
